Termites and Termite Control in Alabama

Every year in the United States, termites cause billions of dollars in damage to homes and businesses. Damage from termites exceeds the total cost from storms and fires across the U.S. and is not covered by homeowner’s insurance. The Bug Doctor offers various types of termite prevention services to fit your needs and budget. Our inspectors are state licensed, highly-trained, and fully-equipped to locate termites in all types of structures. You can rely on their expertise to recommend the treatment that is best suited for your home or business.

Alabama Termite Control Options

Many pest control companies offer only one method for controlling termites, usually insisting that their method of treatment is the only way or the best way. The truth, however, is that no single method of termite control works 100 percent of the time because no two structures are the same. In addition, factors like soil types, drainage, and the presence of wells or cisterns on the property must be considered when choosing a termite control method.

That's why the Bug Doctor offers two primary methods of control for subterranean termites: liquid treatment and termite baiting.

Liquid Termite Treatment using Termidor

Our liquid termite treatments provide a barrier of protection between your home and the termites. The Bug Doctor uses Termidor, the most effective liquid termiticide available in America. Since 2000, over two million homes have been protected using Termidor, and no other liquid termite control product has ever matched Termidor's level of effectiveness.

Termidor is unique because its non-repellent active ingredient is virtually undetectable by termites. Because they can't sense it, Termidor's active ingredient is spread throughout the entire termite colony by the termites themselves. This “Transfer Effect” ensures that all members of the colony come in contact with the termiticide, and the entire colony eventually dies.

Termite Baiting System

The Bug Doctor also offers an environmentally sensitive solution to termite protection that does not involve the application of liquid termiticides into the soil. This method is particularly useful in sensitive areas with high water tables or other factors that complicate liquid treatment.

The Bug Doctor uses the Advance Termite Baiting System. The Advance system has several design features that make it superior to any other system on the market today. Unlike most other termite baiting systems, the Advance Termite Baiting System doesn't disrupt sensitive termite feeding, thus ensuring quick bait acceptance and continued feeding.

Temite baiting has several advantage, including:
